SOUNDBITE (English) JP Duminy:

"Yeah, definitely a great honour and obviously a privilege. Yeah, I'm kind of speechless right now, I think everything is just about soaking in right now. I have known for a while but now that its open in the public it hits home a bit... but yeah, extremely honoured and hopefully I can do our country proud."

SOUNDBITE (English) JP Duminy:

"Yeah, obviously the ODIs take preference, probably for the next year, but look, I think there is about six games that we play in this season, so I guess its just time to dominate T20 cricket as we have been doing. We have been playing really good T20 cricket, I thought we made some huge strides in the T20 World Cup a few months ago, so I guess it's just trying to build on that, hopefully we can put in those big performances."

SOUNDBITE (English) JP Duminy:

"I think that's something we are trying to work towards, it's that it's not only the one guy that is leading the pack, their is a host of us and we can rely on each other from a leadership point of view. Obviously I'm standing in for Faf (du Plessis) as he will be rested for the T20 games, but then again its a great honour for me to do it and an opportunity I guess for me to show my sort of leadership skills, but understanding also that there is quite a few guys that can do the job."
